Right there man,
maybe after a few more listens.

I don't know if you could tailor a song more for an artist then this and he wears it well

I appreciate a unique voice more than a perfectly tuned trained one.  Roy has soul.  That is essential to good music.  8+

We tend to forget that Roy was one of Sam Phillips' originals at Sun Studios. What an amazing track record that man had.

Even after Lefty Wilbury gave his career a boost, he remained his own man to the end. Remarkable voice.

The best way of getting on with people who don't speak your language is to learn theirs. Apologies in advance if you were aiming at irony.

I've said for many years that one day I'm going to be walking down the street thinking.  Then something is going to click in my head.  It will all come to me in a flash.  Why women think the way they do, why women act the way they do, and why women mystify men so much.  Then...

BAM!!!!!

My head will explode because I'm just a guy and men's brains are not made to handle that kind of information.

Amazing story, it was just meant to be for them to meet and for Bono to write an Orbison song that Orbison performed.

I agree that this is a classic tune, but it wasn't written by Roy. It was composed by Bono (who produced) & The Edge (who played some lovely guitar).
 
I did not know that. Weird, wild stuff! Makes all the cooler of a song!

Probably my favourite song of his.

It may not have been written by him, but I think only he could deliver it.

As Elvis and Sinatra demonstrated, you don't necessarily need to write the song to (justifiably) take credit for it.

I have to agree with that as well.  I'm guessing that for most men, women are all a mystery to us.
